Chapter 796: 399 Decent


    The elevator doors opened, and the man in ck guarding the entrance immediately blocked the way.


    Zhou Xue courteously said, “This is Madam Jiang, she heard that Ms. Ming Jing is hospitalized and came to visit.”


    Of course, the two had heard of Jiang Madam’s reputation, but their orders were that no matter who it was, no one could enter.


    “Sorry, our youngdy isn’t seeing anyone. Please leave,” the man in ck said.


    Seeing that the man in ck was unyielding, Zhou Xue gave a signal to the bodyguards.


    The next moment, the two men in ck had guns pointed directly at their foreheads.


    The bodyguards pushed both men aside, and Zhou Xue respectfully bowed, “Madam, please.”


    The woman touched her temples and walked gracefully out of the elevator.


    She didn’t look sideways, walking in her high heels at a leisurely pace.


    Zhou Xue quickly caught up and nced around, “Madam, what if this is a trap? Isn’t it too dangerous for us to enter alone?”


    Jiang Chun hooked her lips and said unhurriedly, “Even if The Rans had a hundred times more courage, they would not dare to harm me.”


    Underhanded tactics were fair game behind the scenes, but The Rans wouldn’t dare to kill her outright unless Ran Tengxiao had lost his mind.


    “Even if it’s a den of dragons and tigers, I will still venture forth today,” she dered.


    The “click-click-click” of her heels on the polished floor created a dull and regr sound. The echoes swirled in the empty hallway, adding an inexplicable touch of eeriness.


    A young girl with a baby-face walked out of a hospital room. Seeing Jiang Chun, her crying red eyes became even redder.


    “Madam Jiang, I heard that you used to be quite fond of our youngdy. Now that she has died an untimely death, you must clear her name,” the girl implored.


    Jiang Chun frowned, “Where’s Ming Jing?”


    The girl just cried, not speaking.


    Jiang Chun walked past her, pushing open the door to the hospital room impatiently.


    Zhou Xue nced at Xiao Hua and furrowed her brow in thought.


    As soon as her back was turned, Xiao Hua rolled her eyes in disdain. Her face showed no pain, only deep mockery and a sneer.


    So eager to kick someone when they’re down, trulycking patience.


    The youngdy’s guess was correct after all.


    A white cloth covered something on the hospital bed, faintly revealing the shape of a person lying beneath it.


    Qu Feitai sat with a drooping head on a chair next to the bed, unkempt and scruffy, not bearing any resemnce to his usual handsome self.


    Jiang Chun walked over, wanting to lift the white cloth. Halfway through, she suddenly stopped.


    “Ming Jing, you must be joking with Aunt Lan, right? Your joke has gone too far, get up now…” she said.


    Qu Feitai suddenly looked up. The coldness in his eyes shed and disappeared as he said in a hoarse voice, “Aunt Lan, before Ming Jing left, she gave me something to give to you.”


    Qu Feitai took out a wooden box and handed it to Jiang Chun.


    Upon seeing the familiar wooden box, Jiang Chun’s pupils suddenly constricted.


    She took the wooden box and opened it.


    Inside, a Bodhi pendanty.


    The gift she presented to Ming Jing at the banquet held by The Zhus in her honor.


    “Snap!” Jiang Chun closed the box, her eyes full of pain, “What happened? Tell me, Xiao Fei.”


    Qu Feitai gave a bitter smile, “Aunt Lan, let’s talk outside. We don’t want to disturb Ming Jing.”


    Jiang Chun signaled to Zhou Xue. As Qu Feitai turned around, Zhou Xue quickly grabbed the wrist under the white cloth. The icy coldness of the touch made her shiver, colder than a millennia-old cier.


    A small part of the extremely pale finger protruded, revealing a bizarre mixture of greenish-purple.


    Zhou Xue’s fingers swiftly swept across the pulse. Her entire being was stunned.


    There was no pulse.


    She recognized the slender and elegant hand, it indeed belonged to Ming Jing.


    She was truly dead.@@novelbin@@


    Zhou Xue’s gaze wasplex.


    “What are you doing?” Xiao Hua saw her movements and rushed over like a madman, pushing her away and ring at her angrily, “What are you doing touching our youngdy? What ill-intentions do you have? With your sneaky appearance, were you the one who killed the youngdy?”


    Zhou Xue quickly tried to exin, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to…”


    “I think you did it on purpose. You killed the youngdy. I’ll fight you,” Xiao Hua, showcasing her unyielding nature, threw herself at Zhou Xue, brawling with her. Zhou Xue didn’t see iting and got her cheek scratched by Xiao Hua’s sharp fingernail.


    Zhou Xue covered her face and backed away, “Have you gone crazy?”


    “You viin, you’re the one who killed the youngdy.” Xiao Hua lunged at her again. Zhou Xue was afraid of her and twisted the girl’s hands behind her back. To stay by Madam’s side, Zhou Xue was not only educated and capable, but also skilled in taekwondo, judo, and Muay Thai, more than enough to deal with a young girl like Xiao Hua.
